metal door mounted hose reels - anygood
« on: January 02, 2011, 10:14:22 am »
anyone use one of these

http://www.screwfix.com/prods/13418/Landscaping-Outdoor/Watering-Irrigation/Irrigation/Wall-Mounted-Hose-Reel

as looking to free up some floor space and hang them off the inside of the back doors of the van .
Do they stand up to the abuse we dish out ??

or how about the plastic hozelock one ??
